I made a lot of decisions in my life that my parents weren't happy about.

In this episode, I talk about what I did to get them to accept decisions that they wouldn't be happy with.

We all thought our parents had their shit together at 30. 

Now that I'm 30, I know that I'm never gonna have everything figured out. I talk about how I FINALLY tried cooking, began to post on social media, and learned to love my body. I definitely still have a lot to learn, but I'm proud of how far I've come. 

What are the lessons you've learned?

Being a female sex therapist in a country where sex is taboo? Not the easiest thing to do.

I sat down with Coach A (@riseup.coach.a) and had every intention of talking about fitness and nutrition tips. But the discussion went a lot deeper. His clients weren't struggling with the exercises or the diet, but they were mainly struggling with believing that they deserved a better body. He talks about centering your fitness journey on self-love, instead of obsessing about the goal.

I finally invited my husband Alessio to the show!

Our European friends Chris, Alessio & Max share what it's really like to date a Filipina. Chris talks about the concept of how dating a Filipina meant dating her entire family (including aunts and uncles). Alessio talks about the differences in family dynamics and hierarchy. Max talks about the concept of "lambing," and how it was completely foreign to him.

Fighting is like a language. If you're fluent in the language, you'll have fewer chances of misunderstanding.

People who know Alessio and me well are often amazed at the fact that we never really fight. I’m sharing our not-so-secret secrets behind how we fight.

I felt stuck and sad at home. It felt like something was missing. So at 28, I moved to Berlin with no job, no apartment, and no friends.
